IMPLEMENTATION OF THE AUTOMATED PRODUCTION LINE OF LLC "NANDO"
Nando ·Lithuania
About this project
<p>SINTEF Industry (Norway) - one of the most experienced institutions with the greatest scientific potential, providing industrial production consulting and pilot production projects in Europe. The activities of this non-profit institution are focused on innovative, high added value industries, in the fields of batteries, biotechnology, advanced materials and others. </p> <p>Added value of partnership: in an innovative fermentation line developed by Nando, with a particularly high level of automation, it is very important to determine necessary controls, their operating parameters and production procedures (protocols) in order to increase production productivity (the amount of biomass produced during the same fermentation cycle). Fed-batch fermentation is particularly relevant, in which this partner has extensive experience and can provide knowledge that the applicant does not currently have. This knowledge will prevent mistakes and inappropriate decisions during the equipment design and installation phase. The partner's motivation to participate in the project is long-term cooperation and additional pilot projects/consulting services. </p>
Bilateral cooperation results
By cooperating with the Norwegian Research Institute together with partners, experiments on the technology of cultivation of microorganisms were carried out in order to extract as much biomass as possible at the end of fermentation. The partner SINTEF Industry is one of the most experienced institutions with the greatest scientific potential, providing industrial production consulting and pilot production projects in Europe. In the innovative industrial fermentation line, with a particularly high level of automation, it was very important to determine the necessary controls, their operating parameters and production procedures (protocols) in order to increase production productivity (the amount of biomass produced during the same fermentation cycle), precisely these goals were set during the partnership.
